Hi all!
I assume we want to renew all of these? Please let me know if the PLC authorizes the trademark office fees of $1,275 (we foot the lawyer time for renewals as we do with the initial stages of trademark defense).
best, karen

The window for renewing these trademark registrations is now open. The renewals can be filed anytime between now and the final deadline of 25 Aug 2019, and there is also a six-month grace period for renewing. It is, however, our suggestion that you renew it as soon as possible, in order to have time to address any problems that might arise in the renewal process.
To renew, we will need a “specimen” showing that the trademark is used on the goods described above. We have attached a screenshot from your website which we believe will be an acceptable specimen for renewal of all three registrations.
Please let us know if you would like for us to proceed with renewing these registrations with the attached specimen. The Trademark Office renewal fee is $425 per registration ($1,275 total). If you have any questions, please let us know.
Best regards,
Anne
